Cooking method

Place peanuts, butter and sugar in a pan. Turn on medium heat and begin to stir until the sugar dissolves. Once the contents in the pan form a syrup, add the condensed milk and baking soda. Reduce the heat to low and stir well with a wooden spoon for a few minutes. Turn off the heat and transfer the mixture onto a greased baking tray. Let cool before cutting into squares, bars, chunks or broken pieces. Serve once cool.
